Chapter 1254 Take A Risk

"This place is a highly guarded secret. Of all the members of the Snow Master Clan, only I know its whereabouts in the Snow Cemetery Plain." Cyrus nodded.

"Is this place really that dangerous?" Rocky was a little surprised. He could tell that Cyrus was wise in age and filled with experience. From first glance, he had made the latter out to be at least two hundred years old and his strength to be at least above that of the senior ordinary spiritual beings. And yet the man was badly hurt. It was clear that this place truly was extremely dangerous.

"Rocky, please go back. A woman of the human race came to this place, but she never came back." Cyrus's face suddenly turned pale as he had recalled a painful past.

"A woman of the human race? Do you know where she came from?" Rocky asked suspiciously.

"She claimed to be the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire and said that she had come to look for this place as well. I remember her because she happened to pass through our village and cured my wife who was seriously ill at the time. Thanks to her, my wife lived on for a few more years and therefore, I will forever be in that Witch's debt. However, as per her request, I took her to that place, and she never came back. It is likely that she died in there." Cyrus recounted the tale in a sad voice.

'Is she that Witch?' Rocky murmured in his heart. Then he assured Cyrus, "That Witch is still alive. She returned to the Holy Dragon Empire safely some time later."

"Really? How do you know that?" Cyrus asked in disbelief.

"Because I'm also from the Holy Dragon Empire," Rocky announced.

"You are also from the Holy Dragon Empire? Then you being here is fate!" Cyrus exclaimed.

"I am not sure about that but please tell me how to get to that place," Rocky gently repeated. His opinion was that since the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire had been to that place, it was likely that the colored pearl was buried here.

"Let me remind you again, young man. The place is extremely dangerous. Are you sure you want to go there?" Cyrus asked for confirmation. Rocky seemed to have made up his mind to get there.

"Can you lead the way for me? If that is not possible, can you at leas

pproached the palace along the steep mountain slope.

Just as he was about to draw near, a deafening sound came from within. It was as if a powerful monster was trapped inside the palace and was about to rush out. The sound was loud enough to be heard easily within a radius of several miles.

Only then did Rocky understand why the Snow Master Clan was so afraid of this place. Judging from the scream that had just resounded, he could see that this was no peaceful place and there was no telling what awaited him inside. However, the colored pearl was the only clue to find the holy treasure of the Dragon Master Clan, and in order to find it, he had no choice but to take the risk.

Not long after, Rocky and Robin arrived at the entrance to the palace. When they got close, Rocky saw that it was constructed completely out of huge snow-white beast bones. Even the pillars were nothing but unshaped bones. It all looked very strange and supernatural. At the same time, it felt magnificent too. To build such a large building, hundreds of supernatural beasts would have been killed. One could see that the people who built this palace were by no means ordinary.

There was no door leading inside, just a large hole in the wall. Judging from the position where Rocky stood, it was pitch black inside, as if he was staring into the depths of hell. However, even so, he stepped inside without fear and darkness enveloped him. No trace of him was visible outside.
